About this role

### About the Role

We're a seed-stage, Y Combinator-backed insurtech AI company building agentic workflows that automate complex claims operations for insurance carriers, third-party administrators (TPAs), and their partners. Our platform handles everything from claim intake and status updates to third-party outreach and document parsing — processing millions of claims across Workers' Compensation, Property & Casualty, and Health insurance sectors.

We're looking for a Founding Software Engineer to join our small, high-velocity team and help shape the core platform. This is a forward-deployed engineering role — you'll work directly with customers, map their workflows, and ship production-grade code that solves real problems at scale.

### What You'll Do

  • Build voice AI systems and document agent workflows that process millions of insurance claims.
  • Partner directly with customers to deeply understand their workflows and deliver friction-free solutions.
  • Ship production-grade TypeScript and Python code that operates on live claims data.
  • Design APIs, data models, and integrations with claims management systems and external platforms.
  • Contribute to foundational architectural decisions as an early member of the engineering team.

### What We're Looking For

Required:

- 3+ years of professional software development experience with TypeScript and Python in production environments.
- Hands-on experience with AWS, Docker, and PostgreSQL in production.
- Proven ability to design and implement APIs, data models, and integrations with external systems (e.g., claims management systems or similar enterprise platforms).
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable collaborating directly with customers in a forward-deployed capacity.
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment.
- Must be authorized to work in the United States (US citizen or valid work visa). Visa sponsorship is not available.
